Get the Best Tire Traction on Slick Roads:

Slide 2:

Car owners worry a lot about snow and ice, but what about rain? Wet or slick roads are just as dangerous; a wet surface can lock up a vehicle just like the toughest winter weather conditions.

Slide 3:

Water decreases the traction between a vehicle and the road. In some cases, the loss of traction can cause a vehicle to hydroplane and prevent a car or truck from steering, braking or accelerating. Tires aren’t defenseless and certain tires are more prepared than others. A tire’s tread design, pattern and internal structure all impact how well a tire maintains its traction on wet roads.

Wet traction is enhanced by four wide circumferential grooves. These grooves evacuate water from under the tread. Internally, the tires’ construction includes a shock absorbent comfort layer of rubber between the tread and steel belts that insulates the vehicle from vibration. The tire also features an internal structure that includes twin steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon.
